I've used both Postman and Insomnia, but recently I've been using the REST Client plugin (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=humao.re...). It's not a feature-rich, but I honestly like the workflow of not having to switch apps and work with files in my editor (as well as put variables in a .env)

There's also an equivalent in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/http-client-in-product-c...

It's been my favorite for a while as well. I like the simplicity and the ease that you can figure out what's going on. I don't need the ability to save libraries and sophisticated variable sets; that just makes the UI cluttered and confusing (like PostMan.)

There's also https://httpyac.github.io/ which has both standalone CLI and VS Code extension versions – might be interesting to explore.
